About

A comprehensive, free & open-source documentation, ticket management, and accounting platform.

The Problem

• You're a busy MSP with 101 things to do.
• Information about your clients is unorganised and unstructured: scattered in random tickets or folders - when you do eventually find it, it's out of date.
• For some issues, you spend longer looking for the relevant documentation than actually working the ticket.
• On top of the technical day to day, you also have to take care of the financial side of the business - consistent pricing, quotes/invoicing, and accounting.

The Solution: ITFlow

• ITFlow consolidates common MSP needs (documentation, ticketing, and accounting) into one system

In Beta

• This project is in beta with many ongoing changes. Updates may unintentionally introduce bugs/security issues.
• Whilst we are confident the code is safe, nothing in life is 100% safe or risk-free. Use your best judgement before deciding to store highly confidential information in ITFlow.
• We are hoping to have a stable 1.0 release by April/May 2023.
